Summary:
"How do you begin to write an art
history
and what are the vital questions to ask? Which marks are most prominent in the visual culture of a particular place, and which are nearly invisible? In Future Possible, Mireille Eagan and other writers and artists navigate the tangled histories and cultures of
Newfoundland
and
Labrador
to investigate the visual output and to write the narrative that it has created. The result is an ambitious volume, arising from a two-part exhibition of the same name at The Rooms, that provides a multi-vocal, multi-faceted
history
spanning pre- and post-Confederation
Newfoundland
. Lavishly illustrated with 180 images of art and objects from the province's visual
history
, Future Possible features essays by curators and artists on topics such as pre-Confederation art; contemporary art, craft, and Indigenous culture; and outsider and folk art. This intriguing volume places work from the region's artifacts from the province's
history
and work by iconic
Newfoundland
and
Labrador
artists such as Gerald Squires, and Mary Pratt in conversation with works by contemporary artists like Jordan Bennett and Kym Greeley. Together they explore how
history
is told and retold through objects and images and how these objects and images, and the power structures that preserve them, define an understanding of place."--Publisher.
